Yes, this is what most of you are here for, modified GTA goodness!
The aim here is to inform you of everything Grand Theft Auto related going down on the web right now.

Not a lot has been going down on the G!/GTAzz side of things for a while, but hopefully things will pickup now the new server is in place and the network is up and whirring its little cogs again.

The main spot for the hot mod is over at GTAForums.com. Despite some areas over there, the modding sections are alive with people ripping apart vice city and slapping in their own made creations.

The biggest mod going on at the moment is The Myriad Islands. The idea is a full set of islands with a road system divided into lots. The lots are designated for anyone who wished to add their piece to the puzzle so to speak. Basically you get to let your creative flow go wild and model your own map feature. Let it be a huge building or a small shop which you can enter, wither way it?s an awesome concept which is under continual development by all the big modelers. Aside from the map, all new vehicles are being made by Diesel GT and also new weapons, missions and storylines but the main development is the map so far.
Find out more here:
 GTAForums Myraid Islands

Although he is facing many difficulties accessing computers as of late, Cerbera is still a great contributor to the scene. For a while his game was setting up handling for GTA3/Vice vehicles, but now he?s involved in various modifications, mostly the ones I have already mentioned.
Check out his site for more info here:
 cerbera.daves-hosting.co.uk.

One of the best Car Modelers around is our very own Eddy Brown. Not only are his models on the best quality, he also has great taste in cars too! Cars like Eddy?s are the standard to be aiming at if you?re going to be making your own custom vehicles.
You can find all his models on our cars pages and you can find more info on Eddy with progress of new works at his site here www.eddybrown.co.uk/

There are twp places to check out developing and finished car models, that?s here and here. These are the best places to post work in progress shots of your work to gain feedback tips and help. Note that car conversions from other games aren?t the best thing to post more than once.

For the tools involved in editing GTA3/Vice City, visit these pages first:

www.zmodeler.com ? Freeware 3D modeler (For maps and cars alike). There is also an tutorial which is good enough anyone over 12.
www.infofeast.com/delfi/ - All kinds of programs, especially TXD Workshop 2.5 for making txd files. Delfi?s programs are of great quality and support. Thanks for all the help and tools!
steve-m.com ? More assorted tools! More noted the collision editor and maker for maps and vehicles alike. Another great set of tools.
In development he has also got a Vice City character import/export tool nearly ready for release.
www.chronetal.co.uk/gta/ - Moo Mapper is the tool used to add your objects to the GTA3/Vice City world, a must for budding mappers.

There are many sites and forums devoted to all the aspects of the GTA series us being one of them. To join the craze, a good place to start is to ask a few questions on our forums. Don?t forget to visit the car pages to download some nice motors and remember to submit your models too!

Dup bags a monster post!

Here is the pinned topic on GTAF which has a good list of modding places, including a few sites where like mine which are made by modifiers, for modifiers - they way things should be imho. :Y

I've been thinking of adding a links section to my own site, just for the modifier-made sites that actually work well and aren't just slapped together in MSWord, of course. :]
